34-599 50 mm Dia. UVFS Round Protective Flat Window; t=1 mm Uncoated

The 34-599 is a 50 mm diameter, 1 mm thick uncoated flat window made from UVFS material, sourced from Edmund Optics. This window is designed to protect optical systems from environmental hazards while minimally affecting the light path. The window's thin design and circular shape make it suitable for a wide range of applications.

The UVFS material, also known as UV Fused Silica, is a high-purity silica glass with excellent transmission properties in the ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared regions. It has a low coefficient of thermal expansion, making it resistant to thermal shock and suitable for use in environments with varying temperatures. The uncoated surface ensures high damage threshold and low auto-fluorescence, making it ideal for high-power laser applications.

The window's geometry, with a diameter of 50 mm and a thickness of 1 mm, provides a good balance between strength, rigidity, and light transmission. The thin design minimizes weight and reduces the risk of distortion, while the large diameter allows for easy integration into various optical systems.

Please note that the window does not have any coatings. Coatings can be applied to enhance the window's performance in specific applications, such as anti-reflection coatings to increase transmission or AR/VR coatings to reduce reflections. However, this window is designed to provide excellent performance as is, making it a versatile and reliable choice for many applications.
